Mechanical Thrombectomy for Postoperative Stroke in a Patient with Acute Aortic Dissection Type A.
Article in NMC case report journal, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Mechanical thrombectomy has been proposed to expand the treatment time window and enhance revascularization. However, it is unclear whether its use can be extended to patients with occlusions in acute aortic dissection, especially the thoracic aorta. A 55-year-old man underwent graft replacement for acute aortic dissection type A. On postoperative day 2, he developed stroke and computed tomography showed occlusion of the right middle cerebral artery. Mechanical thrombectomy was performed by transbrachial approach. Although successful recanalization was achieved, he suffered hemorrhagic stroke. Since there is no other effective treatment and the neurologic outcome with conservative management is poor, we consider mechanical thrombectomy to be a viable therapeutic option for the treatment of postoperative stroke in patients with acute aortic dissection type A. However, further study is warranted regarding the safety of this technique.
